At this point, it's beyond stupid. The Sports Illustrated writer who did the story on him way, way back in November (the one hyping him for the Heisman) posted the transcript of his interview with the guy.
Girlfriend was a Mary Sue! She was "really really smart" and just really, really, REALLY loved God. And when her father died, she took over his job! She was only 22 and her father had been on of the 'higher ups' in the administration of a construction firm. But she was willing to take on her dead Dad's mantle. But she really wanted to work with kids. She taught elementary school classes (???) and travelled to New Zealand. But then she got hit by a drunk driver! And she was on life support! And there was brain damage! And her family was going to pull the plug! But the nurse noticed than whenever he was on the phone with her, the girlfriend's heart rate and vitals would get better!
But her family was going to pull the plug! And on the very day that they were going to pull the plug, she did. not. die!!!
But she had brain damage, and could not speak and had bad memory problems. But when he spoke to her (over the phone...?), suddenly... she SPOKE! And her very first words were that she loved him!
But then she was diagnosed with leukemia. But she was getting better and was released from the hospital. And then out of the blue she died (and he received the call while he was preparing for a game in the Notre Dame locker room!) and others were there to witness it. But he manned up and really powered through that practice.
And 'now' (back in November when the interview was done) he wore a sorta kinda wedding ring in memory of his dead girlfriend... who he now says he never met and who, in fact, NEVER EXISTED!
